Designed for easy, confident home pressure canning.
The only method recommended safe by the U.S. Department of Agriculture for canning low-acid foods such as vegetables, meats, poultry, and fish.

Doubles as a boiling-water canner for preserving fruits, jams, jellies, pickles, and salsa in pint and half-pint jars.
Special air vent/cover lock allows pressure to build only when the cover is closed properly and prevents the cover from being opened until pressure has safely dropped. It also gives a visual indication of pressure inside the canner.
Constructed of warp-resistant heavy-gauge aluminum for fast, even heating.
